Jaakko Parantainen is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dan Tip (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pooby Phants (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tip's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Roy Jones Jr - Can't Be Touched. The crowd seem to be enjoying Phants's choice of entrance music: Voodoo Chile. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
